RESTON, Va., Nov. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ICF (NASDAQ: ICFI), a global consulting and technology services provider, reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Management Commentary

John Wasson, chair and chief executive officer, said, “Our third quarter performance demonstrated the return to year-on-year revenue growth that we anticipated would begin in the second half of this year and benefited from our diversified and integrated business model. Revenues from our federal government clients continued to show solid sequential growth in line with our expectations, and revenues from state and local and non-U.S. government clients increased 7.6% and 12.0% year-on-year, respectively.

“A key highlight of the third quarter was our strong margin performance, benefiting from efficient contract delivery and favorable contract mix. Our Adjusted EBITDA margin was 11.5%, expanding by 10 basis points year-on-year and representing a notable sequential increase. Fixed-price contracts accounted for 50.2% of our third quarter revenues, up from 48.7% in the similar period last year, and together with time & material contracts represented 94.3% of this quarter’s revenues. We are closely managing corporate costs, while continuing to invest in technology and professional staff to support client programs and capture new business opportunities.

“Third quarter revenues from commercial energy clients were considerably below our expectations due to a confluence of factors, most notably a sharp fall-off in contract add-on activity that historically has bolstered second half revenues in our utility programs category. There was a material increase in political and regulatory pressure on utilities in Q3 to develop affordable solutions for their customers, which has caused a slowdown and/or shift in incremental spending priorities for certain existing utility programs. Also, we experienced slower than expected ramp-ups on new contracts. As a result, ICF’s revenues from commercial energy clients are expected to increase at a low- to mid-single-digit rate for 2026. We continue to see commercial energy as a long-term growth driver for ICF. Our year-to-date contract awards have been strong, our win rates are increasing, and we are building a meaningful pipeline in areas where we see utility spending expanding, including audits/weatherization, demand response and virtual power plants.

“This also was a strong quarter for companywide contract awards, which increased 4.5% year-on-year to $746 million. Over 60% of our third quarter awards represented new business, a good indication of how well ICF’s capabilities and expertise are aligned with our clients’ priorities. Following this solid performance, our business development pipeline stood at $8.2 billion at the end of the third quarter and was well diversified across our client set.”

Third Quarter Business Highlights in Key Long-Term Growth Markets

Commercial Energy

ICF manages over 300 energy efficiency programs for 60 utilities in 28 states. Revenues from this part of the company’s commercial energy business were similar to last year’s levels due to the near-term challenges described above. We continue to see positive underlying momentum supported by year-to-date contract wins and client demand for our expertise as they address affordability issues together with operational imperatives around electrification and data center requirements. Energy advisory revenues increased 14.1% in the quarter and 10.5% year-to-date, with particular strength in our work on grid engineering and planning, transmission and interconnection, integrated power and gas planning, resource adequacy, technical due diligence, and storage. Additionally, our work with hyperscalers is expanding, and we are advising on a broader set of issues created by the scale of data center development, including energy efficiency, community impacts, power supply and reliability. As anticipated, other commercial energy comparisons declined year-on-year due to the wind-down of several wind energy projects through last year’s third quarter.

Commercial energy awards represented approximately 26% of year-to-date contract awards, and commercial energy opportunities represent more than $1.6 billion of our pipeline at the end of the third quarter.

ICF’s energy work includes programs for federal and state agencies that provide us with greater insight into the regulatory and stakeholder environment, which strengthens our ability to meet and often exceed the milestones of our commercial energy contracts.

Technology Modernization

ICF has built out its technology modernization capabilities over the last six years, which in the third quarter represented approximately 50% of our revenues from federal government clients. Over 80% of ICF’s technology modernization work is performed under outcome-based, fixed-price contracts, the preferred contract vehicles for government technology projects. Additionally, we continue to align our federal portfolio around administration priorities, with increased focus on expanding our footprint in the defense and national security arena, while building our brand in government-wide application modernization.

While primarily serving federal agency clients, our technology modernization capabilities are deployed across the company’s client categories. Technology modernization opportunities represented approximately $2.4 billion of our pipeline at the end of the third quarter.

State and Local Government/Disaster Recovery

The 7.6% revenue growth from state and local government clients in the third quarter illustrates ICF’s ability to leverage its deep domain expertise and robust technology capabilities across its client sets. Several of the projects driving growth in this client category include developing and managing energy efficiency programs in the Northeast and California, providing advanced technology solutions to several states and territories, and offering our rural health services.

During the quarter, ICF supported more than 50 active disaster recovery programs in more than 20 states and territories. While we view the disaster management market as a driver of long-term growth, funding delays and the slower pace of major events have constrained near-term activity in this arena. ICF continues to execute substantial rebuilding and mitigation projects utilizing our environmental and climate expertise, and we are helping our clients prepare to take on a larger role in rebuilding and resilience, having significantly increased our on-call contracts with state and local governments. State and local government opportunities represented approximately $1.1 billion of the total pipeline at the end of the third quarter.

Dividend Declaration

On November 5, 2026, ICF declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.14 per share, payable on January 8, 2027, to shareholders of record on December 4, 2026.

Summary and Outlook

“ICF is on the path to second half year-on-year revenue growth, and we see positive momentum as we head into 2027. The adjusted EBITDA margin expansion we achieved in the third quarter was notable, our new contract awards were strong, and our business development pipeline is robust, all indications of the underlying strength of our business and effective cost management. Additionally, given ICF’s diversified portfolio, we see the midterm election results as a tailwind for our business.

“For full year 2026, we are expecting revenues to be similar to 2025 levels, with GAAP EPS of approximately $5.95, inclusive of $.11 of special charges. We are maintaining the midpoint of our Non-GAAP EPS guidance range of $7.10, representing 4.9% year-on-year growth and benefiting from improved margins, a lower interest rate and reduced share count. Operating cash flow is expected to range from $135 million to $150 million, excluding the impact of restricted cash.

“We continue to benefit from the energy of our people, who have shown tremendous dedication and commitment to our clients and embody the strong corporate culture that ICF is known for,” Mr. Wasson concluded.

1 Non-GAAP EPS, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measurements. A reconciliation of all non-GAAP measurements to the most applicable GAAP number is set forth below. Special charges are items that were included within our consolidated statements of comprehensive income but are not indicative of ongoing performance and have been presented net of applicable U.S. GAAP taxes. The presentation of non-GAAP measurements may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Caution Concerning Forward-looking Statements

Statements that are not historical facts and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties are “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Such statements may concern our current expectations about our future results, plans, operations and prospects and involve certain risks, including those related to: the government contracting industry generally; our dependence on contracts with U.S. federal, state and local, and international government clients for the majority of our revenue; failure by Congress or other governmental bodies to approve budgets and appropriations in a timely fashion, reductions in government spending, and the impact of a lengthy federal government shutdown; the current Administration’s policy changes, executive orders, and failure to spend Congressionally mandated appropriations, including the resulting effect on government audits and contract terminations; changes in federal government budgeting and spending priorities; our ability to estimate and control costs under our fixed-price contracts; the realization of our backlog; the dependence of our commercial work on sectors of the global economy that are highly cyclical; and our ability to acquire and successfully integrate businesses. These and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in our forward-looking statements are described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and in our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements included herein are made only as of the date hereof, and we specifically disclaim any obligation to update these statements in the future.

Note on Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Measures

The company does not reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures, due to the variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections and because not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures (such as the effect of share-based compensation or the impact of future extraordinary or non-recurring events like acquisitions) is available to the company without unreasonable effort. For the same reasons, the company is unable to estimate the probable significance of the unavailable information. The company provides forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures that it believes will be achievable, but it cannot accurately predict all of the components of the adjusted calculations, and the U.S. GAAP financial measures may be materially different than the non-GAAP financial measures.

(2) These tables provide reconciliations of Non-GAAP financial measures to the most applicable U.S. GAAP numbers. While we believe that these Non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating our financial information, they should be considered supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Other companies may define similarly titled Non-GAAP measures differently and, accordingly, care should be exercised in understanding how we define these measures. 

(3) Reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Non-GAAP Diluted EPS were calculated using numbers as reported in U.S. GAAP.

(4) These are primarily third-party costs related to potential and/or closed acquisitions and integration of closed acquisitions.

(5) These costs are due to involuntary employee termination benefits for (i) our officers and (ii) a group of employees who have been notified that they will be terminated as part of a business reorganization or exit. 

(6) These charges and adjustments are related to previously exited leased facilities and the closure of certain international offices.

(7) Net Income Margin Percent on Revenue was calculated by dividing net income by revenue.

(8) EBITDA Margin Percent and Adjusted EBITDA Margin Percent on Revenue were calculated by dividing the Non-GAAP measure by the corresponding revenue.

(9) The amortization of intangible assets acquired from business combinations totaled $4.2 million and $9.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $19.4 million and $27.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

(10) Income tax effects were calculated using the effective tax rate, adjusted for certain discrete items, if any, of 15.0% and 22.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and 18.8% and 23.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

DentScribe Launches Perio Charting Benchmark and Reports 100% Across All Eight Levels

Published

on

By

DentScribe 2.165.0 passed 68 of 68 tests with 1,967 of 1,967 expected entries correct and zero extra entries in the company’s text-to-chart evaluation.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — DentScribe today announced its AI Periodontal Charting Benchmark 1.0 and accompanying performance report, giving dental practices and dental service organizations a practical framework for evaluating AI perio charting. Developed by DentScribe working with teams of dentists, dental hygienists, and dental assistants, the benchmark combines a written charting standard, 68 test scripts, expected charts, and a score card.

DentScribe introduces a new, transparent evaluation standard for AI periodontal charting.

In its November 2026 results report, DentScribe reported that it passed all 68 tests across eight levels and handled all 24 tested dictation styles perfectly. All 1,967 expected chart entries were correct, with no extra entries. The results evaluate how the engine converts supplied text into chart entries.

“A hygienist should be able to concentrate on the patient and the probe, not on remembering how a computer wants the findings dictated. We worked with dental teams to make those expectations testable, down to the tooth, site, and reading,” said Dr. Vinni K. Singh, DDS, AFAAID, Founder and CEO of DentScribe.

A Standard for the Chart and a Benchmark for the Software

The charting standard defines the expected interpretation: Universal tooth numbering, six sites per tooth, reading order as the probe travels around the mouth, and rules for missing teeth, corrections, findings, and scope. The benchmark then tests whether software follows those rules. An entry counts as correct only when the value or finding belongs to the right tooth and site. A test passes only when every expected entry is correct and nothing extra appears.

The eight levels progress from individual readings to complete examinations:

Explicit Tooth & Site Charting — Correct placement of named readings, including two-digit pocket depths.Automatic Navigation — Numbers-only dictation, midline direction changes, arch transitions, and missing teeth.Periodontal Findings — Bleeding, suppuration, recession, mucogingival junction measurements, and mobility.Flexible Phrasing & Navigation — Different word orders, findings during probing, jumps, and restatements.The Real Room — Filler words, patient conversation, corrections, and returning to or resuming probing.Accelerated Dictation — Shorthand, scope words, tooth lists, and ranges.Safety — Missing teeth receive no readings, incomplete readings stay incomplete, and findings do not spread to unmentioned sites.Complete Exams: Full Words & Shorthand — Two complete examinations, each expressed both ways, must produce matching charts.

Performance Beyond the Clean Scripts

DentScribe also passed all 13 additional noisy-room text versions, with 471 of 471 expected entries correct and zero extra entries. These scripts contain simulated speech-recognition mishearings; they are not a live suction-noise or microphone study. Across all 81 clean and noisy scripts, eight runs per script produced identical charts.

Both full-word and shorthand versions of each complete exam produced the same expected chart. For the second exam, shorthand reduced the script from 397 words to 210, about 47% fewer words. This measures script length, not demonstrated chairside time savings.

“Accurate transcription is only the beginning. Perio charting must preserve location and context while the clinician changes direction, corrects a reading, or adds a finding on another tooth. Publishing the scripts and expected charts lets customers inspect those behaviors themselves,” said Dr. Ratinder Paul Singh Ahuja, Ph.D., Board Chair of DentScribe.

The benchmark suite reflects styles supported by DentScribe

Evaluate the Charting System in Your Practice

The kit provides read-aloud scripts, expected charts, and a score card. Practices can use the same reader, room, and microphone, score the first attempt, and count extra entries separately. The kit and performance report are available from DentScribe.

CURE International completes electronic medical records rollout across its eight children’s hospitals with Thoughtworks

Published

on

By

BENGALURU, India, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Thoughtworks, a global technology consultancy integrating design, engineering and AI to drive digital innovation, worked with CURE International (CURE), a global non-profit, to move clinical records at all their pediatric hospitals from paper to a modern electronic medical records (EMR) system. CURE provides surgical care at no cost to children with treatable disabilities and their hospitals, seven across Africa and one in the Philippines, now run on Bahmni, an open-source hospital management system incubated by Thoughtworks for low-resource settings.

Much of the clinical work in CURE’s hospitals used to run on paper, with notes written by hand, carried between departments and re-entered later. Each hospital also has its own specialties, infrastructure and staffing.

Thoughtworks worked with the non-profit to modernize and standardize their systems to digitally document all their patient clinical care journeys. The partners customized and deployed Bahmni across CURE’s network.

The latest rollout builds on a partnership that began in 2023, when CURE first engaged Thoughtworks to digitize care in its children’s hospitals. Thoughtworks’ Managed Services team continues to run deployments and day-to-day operations across the network.

“Taking eight hospitals from paper to digital without interrupting care is a monumental challenge,” said Kevin de Smidt, Chief Technology Officer at CURE International. “The Thoughtworks team learned how our clinicians actually work, allowing us to roll out a system that lets our teams spend less time chasing paperwork and more time focused on providing world-class surgical care to the children we serve. Because we built this on Bahmni, these EMR enhancements are going back into the open-source project, ensuring the next low-resource hospital starts further ahead than we did.”

To give clinicians reliable digital tools in every hospital, the work focused on four priority areas:

Safer clinical care: Adding high-visibility alerts for allergies and the need for blood crossmatching, supervisor approval for changes to medication records, dosing guidance linked to each child’s weight and a new variable dose protocol.Less administrative work on the ward: Introducing electronic drug charts, automated nursing tasks and ward-level inpatient dashboards. A routine medication round now takes three clicks instead of seven.Better use of operating theaters: Tracking each patient’s surgical readiness in real time and suggesting a replacement patient when a scheduled surgery can’t go ahead.Reliable operations without disrupting care: Upgrading the platform that helped deployments reach each site 60% faster and causing 45% less disruption to patient services.

“Executing a multi-region clinical rollout across eight global hospitals demands absolute operational resilience,” said Steve Obana, Senior Vice President – Life Sciences & MedTech at Thoughtworks. “Healthcare platforms operating in these environments cannot afford downtime or instability. Our team approached this with rigorous engineering discipline and we are proud to provide the managed services backbone and technical stability that allows CURE’s medical teams to scale their life-changing work with absolute confidence in their systems.”

CURE has extended its managed services support with Thoughtworks for a further year, covering platform upgrades, stability and operations across all eight hospitals.

Features built for CURE, including inpatient care and monitoring and a digital medication administration record, are being contributed back to the core Bahmni project. This makes them available to other hospitals deploying the platform in low-resource settings.

By combining its experience building Bahmni with managed services operations, Thoughtworks is helping CURE International deliver technology that works where it matters most: giving clinicians reliable tools and information to provide safe, effective care for every child.

Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2027 Announces “OnChain Finance” Theme, Introduces Institutional Arena

Published

on

By

Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2027 will focus on “OnChain Finance” and introduce its inaugural Institutional Arena, an invitation-only, closed-door program bringing together senior executives and decision-makers from global financial institutions and the digital asset industry to explore developments in on-chain finance and opportunities for institutional collaboration.

HONG KONG, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The fifth edition of Hong Kong Web3 Festival, co-hosted by Wanxiang Blockchain Labs and HashKey Group and organized by W3ME, will take place from April 19 to 21, 2027, at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC). Under the theme “OnChain Finance”, this year’s Festival will introduce its inaugural Institutional Arena, a fully closed-door, invitation-only program bringing together senior executives and key decision-makers from global banks, securities firms, asset managers, payment providers, insurance companies, family offices, and the digital asset industry to examine opportunities and future developments in on-chain finance.

As asset tokenization moves toward real-world adoption, stablecoin payments and on-chain settlement are expanding into a broader range of financial applications. Blockchain technology is becoming increasingly integrated into core financial market activities, including asset issuance, trading, payments, and settlement. Meanwhile, banks, asset managers, and payment companies worldwide are accelerating their engagement with digital assets, bringing greater attention to the integration of on-chain and traditional financial systems, cross-market collaboration, and regulatory compliance. From financial product innovation to the evolution of market mechanisms and infrastructure, OnChain Finance is driving deeper integration between blockchain technology and traditional finance.

Since its inaugural edition in 2023, Hong Kong Web3 Festival has witnessed the digital asset industry’s shift from infrastructure exploration toward practical applications, alongside growing engagement between traditional financial institutions and the digital asset sector. Previous editions have featured Cathie Wood, CEO and CIO of ARK Invest, sharing perspectives on digital assets and investment trends, as well as representatives from Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (HKEX), WeBank, and Ant International discussing financial technology innovation and real-world applications. Financial institutions including BlackRock, HSBC, China International Capital Corporation (CICC), and China Asset Management (Hong Kong) have also participated in industry discussions, reflecting the Festival’s continued engagement across banking, securities, asset management, investment, and financial technology.

Entering its fifth year, Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2027 will build on its longstanding focus on blockchain innovation and next-generation financial infrastructure, with OnChain Finance as its annual theme. The Festival will explore key topics including asset tokenization, stablecoins and global payments, on-chain capital markets, institutional digital asset services, regulatory compliance, quantum computing and cryptography, AI and financial security, as well as open hardware and privacy protection. Bringing together financial institutions, technology companies, and digital asset industry representatives from around the world, the Festival will examine practical applications, market opportunities, and future developments in on-chain finance.

Institutional Arena to Bring Global Financial Leaders Together for Closed-Door Discussions

A major new addition to the 2027 Festival, the Institutional Arena will be held during the three-day event from April 19 to 21. Operating on a fully closed-door, invitation-only basis, it will bring together senior executives and key decision-makers from global banks, asset management firms, payment companies, institutional investors, and digital asset businesses. The program is designed to provide a more focused and specialized setting for institutional engagement, while offering dedicated venues for leading financial institutions to host their own closed-door events.

As a key addition to this year’s program, the Institutional Arena will feature a dedicated networking area for institutional participants. Through keynote presentations, closed-door roundtables, and thematic discussions, it will address issues of particular interest to financial institutions, examining business practices across different markets and opportunities for collaboration. The program will also create a more targeted environment for direct engagement among financial institutions and between these institutions and innovative companies across the industry.

Complementing the Festival’s broader industry discussions, the Institutional Arena will provide a dedicated setting for deeper dialogue on practical business priorities, facilitating cross-institutional collaboration and business connections between global financial institutions and the digital asset sector.

Four Editions of Global Industry Engagement

Since its launch in 2023, Hong Kong Web3 Festival has grown into an international platform connecting participants across digital assets, finance, and technology. Across its first four editions, the festival has attracted more than 150,000 attendees, featured over 1,600 speakers, hosted more than 500 exhibitors, and supported over 600 side events.

Building on four editions of engagement spanning technological innovation and financial applications, Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2027 will place OnChain Finance at the center of its program. With the introduction of the Institutional Arena, the Festival aims to strengthen connections between global financial institutions and the digital asset industry, bringing together forward-looking perspectives and practical developments in financial innovation.
